...As Beckham Makes Swiss Vow David Beckham has vowed to take out the pain of defeat against France on Switzerland. After his costly missed penalty Beckham said: "Nothing will defeat me. My mentality is to carry on until I win. "Everyone knows there are things that have gone on in my life that I have got over and I will continue to do that. "There is a lot of frustration from the France game and that will be taken out on Thursday. As soon as that whistle goes we'll be at them." The England skipper added: "The anger is the good part for the players now. It's not anger where we want to go out and kick players. "It's anger where we want to go out and win games, and make people believe in us." Beckham revealed how coach Sven-Goran Eriksson calmed England's players before the game, and picked him up afterwards. He said: "I was sat there on my own. That's when the manager came in and said that it was important that I, as captain, responded in the right way. "I would have done that anyway but it helped to have those words." Beckham added: "The English mentality has always been about wearing your heart on your sleeve and that's not changed. "But obviously Mr Eriksson brings calmness to the team as well. "The last thing he said to us the other night before going out was 'keep your heads'. Not many managers have probably said that over the years. "The calmness of the manager is very important. It definitely rubs off on us as the players were really psyched up. "But the way in which we kept our positional play - which had not been the best in the two friendlies before that - was perfect." Beckham now fully expects England to bounce back from the defeat against France with a powerful performance against Switzerland. He said: "That's a great thing about being English. People do get knocked down but when they respond in the right way, English people respect that. "If this team can do that, the team will be loved even more than it is now" Who Are We ? | About THISDAYOnLine.com | THISDAY People | Contact Us © Copyright 2000 Leaders & Company Limited
